Chapter 26

After scanning his attire, her gaze traveled down to his neck, and it stayed there for a moment. A robust neck, defined by well-developed muscles, conveying an impression of strength.

Her eyes then ascended to his face. He had mid-length straight black hair that reached his ears. His eyes, green, and a small scar on the corner of his right lip.

The man before her made her feel something in her stomach. Something that she never felt.

"I-I am sorry." she stammered.

The man completely turned to her and nonchalantly lowered himself to her eye level, back slightly inclined, forearms resting on his thighs, and a look of disdain painted his face.

The look on the man's face made Y/N left uncomfortable, her heart pulsating from multiple emotions.

"I-... I am sorry, sir" she apologized again, her voice carrying a hint of unease. The man tilted his head, fixing his gaze on her.

Moments passed, the man maintained a relaxed expression, but it seemed like he was lost in his thoughts, trying to recollect something. As silence intensified, the awkwardness rose.

"Watch where you're going next time." he finally replied, rising and casting a glare her way.

She nodded, rising to her feet and dusting off her clothes.

The man walked away, claiming a seat at the six-seater table within the cafe.

Y/N couldn't resist one last glance at him, and oh, how her body grew flush and warm in response.

Suppressing her emotions, Y/N moved towards the counter to place her order. The man's presence was unlike anyone she had encountered before, her mind racing with thoughts and feelings. The sight of him made her feel... like she'd never felt before. The man constantly lingered in her thoughts

She ordered (F/F) and waited for it to arrive, soon after, it did. She took the plate and scanned the surrounding to find a place to sit. Unfortunately, her eyes couldn't find one.

In a stroke of luck, a duo vacated the six-seater table just as Y/N looked around. The now empty space happened to be right next to the intriguing man.

Her heart quickened and her cheeks started to burn, the thought of sitting beside him made her feel an exhilarating feeling within her. Something warm and exciting, almost frighteningly so. It was as if her body were reacting to him on its own and she couldn't make herself stop even if she wanted to.

The way he sat there, so confident and relaxed, drew her gaze like a magnet. She wanted to touch him...touch his muscular body.

Y/N has never felt to drawn towards any man. Despite countless attempts by others, she remained disinterested. But this guy's physique was something she had never seen before. She didn't think was possible for a man to be this buffed.

Swallowing nervously, she approached the table, her breath quickening, heart pounding. Placing the food down, she settled into the chair beside the mysterious man.

His attention was fixed on the mini television to the right, mounted on the ceiling.

As she began to eat, his visible lack of notice allowed her to steal glances. The way his body moved made her heart pound even more in desire. These feelings grew with every passing moment.

Abruptly, a man was pushed onto him forcefully causing his drink to fall on the ground.

"I'm sorry! I slipped..!" the man explained.

The muscular man rose and fiercely glared at him.

"What the hell are you doing!? Watch where you're going! How careless and inconsiderate can you be!?" he shouted.
